I was wrong... he IS dreamcastninja.  I just did a quick search cuz when you said that, I questioned myself.

They're all just huge tools in my mind, so I'm sure you can understand how I got them confused :)

Yeah, amongst those three it would be kinda difficult to tell them apart.

No way.  It would be an automatic failure.  They'll have two versions.  One will be a $300 barebones version that will play all the games, the other will be a $400 version that will include WebTV and probably media center capabilities.

It'll be $500+ CDN then

Are you telling us that your life is so empty and void of meaning, that you occupy your time SPECULATING on the design and aesthetics of a gaming console????



Dude...... :-\

Well...I DO care what it looks like.  The Xbox currently sitting in my living room is an eyesore, for example, while the Gamecube looks like a piece of art deco and the PS2 looks like a nice piece of industrial artwork.

But mainly, it's fun.  There are new systems coming out and it's exciting.  Why do you think movie companies make teaser trailers a year before the movie is released that don't show a single scene from the movie?

So Xbox360 will come out before Christmas/05.  Does anyone think the PS3 will be release by then?  I don't think so.. but would Sony give Microsoft one full Christmas season lead??

Personally I think that a lot of current X-Box owners are going to feel burned that Microsoft is coming out with a new system so soon, effectively abandoning them.

I wonder if Xbox360 will be backwards compatible?

I don't know.  Dreamcast came out first and had a significant head start.

Basically, though, Sony probably doesn't have a choice.  Even if their hardware can be ready in time for a Holiday '05 launch they can't launch without software.  They need to have a slew of titles available, including AT LEAST one killer app.  they also have to be prepared to have more software releasing with regularity, at least a few big titles per month.  If they rush the development of the software and debut with a bunch of unpolished crap they will practically be asking to lose their place as market leader.

If i can find the link again, theres something about the Hard drive version being backwards compatable..
